I hope you haven't put too big a dent into the side of the sender tube, trying to pull a 3" assembly through a 2.5" hole, otherwise you'll be looking for a new one .

were is the best place to get a new pump there are lots on ebay ranging from £30 up to £160, gsf £95. ive not tried bmw yet!!
there seams to be lots of different makes and flow rate.
ive not tried to force anything so hopefully the sender tube is ok.

Got mine from eurocarparts but be warned, mine was listed as in tank. When I got it it was bigger than the entire assembley so not so.
